Not sure if this matters but the circled team looks like Brooke and Claire.

To me the circled team looks more like Nick & Vicki.

Me too.

I sent Chateau some shadow pics, hopefully he can help with the time question.

If those are from the promo I capped earlier...they may just be production people...lots of them about. I put anyone in a cap I wasn't sure about, up.

You forget that the promo does not tell the average person who is getting eliminated.

If you did not look at this forum, or indeed any spoilers, you wouldn't know that B/C make it to the top 3, thus it would all be up in the air. You're overthinking things, Prophet. Just relax.

I don't think the average fan would have even noticed that Brooke could be seen in that shot and thus would assume that Michael's ineptitude at tasks would lead to their elimination. Especially considering that they included and highlighted the overly dramatic quote by Kevin "we're going to be last because of this." I think that if the average viewer saw M/K eliminated in Ep. 07 they would find it to be anti-climatic and be surprised that so much had been revealed in the promo.

But it hasn't. All that's been "revealed" is that Mike misses a couple of shots and that Kev thinks they are going to come last. Although I suppose that is a big deal considering they are literally the only team ever to face that situation.

Why are we making such a big deal of the promo? They do this nearly every week, yet we find that the team that was seemingly in so much trouble pulls through. I repeat: You are over thinking things

At the end of the prior episode, I could not believe that Phil made no mention of the SpeedBump that is supposed to be automatic for the last-place finisher in an NEL leg. This leg showed no SpeedBump at all, so someone at World Race Productions may have forgotten to put one in. How is this possible from a fairness point of view. Now, due to the penalties of Michael/Kevin and Chad/Stephanie (thanks, redskooky for the correction), Nick/Vicky would not have been eliminated by doing a task taking approximately 30 minutes. However, there's something rotten in Denmark( Or was it St. Petersburg?).

they probably edited out the Speedbump reference on the last episode after the editors chose to cut it from this one

The story so far:In the beginning the Universe was created.This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move

I would suspect that the speed bump was before the circus detour....Then with all the other drama in this episode....as Danoosky said......they just didnt show it. I feel sure that the interviewers will ask that after Nick/Vicki get eliminated. We will just have to wait till then to find out for sure.

**The following is just something I read and is by no means official**

There are rumors at s***** that there was no Speedbump as a credit due to a production mistake during the last leg in which one of the judges at the Piano Detour had told Nick & Vicki they were wrong when they were in fact right. They say Nick posted it in his FB.

That could well be the case, although its been a long time since a production credit was mentioned on air. However, I'm not sure Nick could even post anything about it on FB without running afoul of CBS until they are eliminated, or the final episode has aired.
